Bristol Bloodhound Mk I - Airfix 1/72

Hi guys

Sorry about this very long interruption.

Hoping to start the new year with the right foot, please find below the photos of my interpretation of a Bristol Bloodhound Mk 1 in a mid 60's British setting.

The kit is the good old Airfix one, obviously  :)

Great job.

Had one with the Airfix C-130.  Long gone.   :(

Nice little dio and I love the mods to the Rover.  I have a couple of these for different projects and the info is helpful.
